So I'm planning a build for my carputer and want to use this with this in order to create the 7" touchscreen mount for my carputer. My concern is that the piece from mp3car seems to be designed to be mounted on the sides and from what I've seen of the radio cavity, the mounts are front-facing. Has anyone used the double din LCD touchscreen from mp3car.com?

The idea is to try to prevent making a custom bezel in an effort to save time. Let me know what you guys think, thanks for the feedback.

I'm not 100% sure but looks like you could make custom brackets that would then allow you to mount it in the radio cavity front mounts. Most double dins I have looked at all have mounts on the sides and seems everyone has just made custom brackets.

Yeah, I would think you could easily make a bracket out of some aluminum angle (L) that would work...

Thanks for the responses, I was afraid I'd have to fab it. It'll be interesting anyways, just don't have the time to do it right now unfortunately.

When I made my brackets it took maybe 25 minutes for the first one, less time for the second. The hardest part is measuring where to make holes, and bending it how you want it. I actually didn't even make holes. (didn't have anything to make a hole) I just took some metal shears and cut slots that could slide over the little mounting screws. The most refreshing part of making them, is knowing no one will ever see them. They don't have to be perfect, just gotta be able to do their job.
